Patent number: 9025934Abstract: When a disc player device (100) is powered on again, playback information stored in a nonvolatile storage portion (160) is retrieved by a playback information retrieving portion (170) and delivered to a user operation auto-executing portion (180). It is determined whether or not user input instructions are limited, on the basis of user operation mask information obtained by a user operation mask information obtaining portion (130). An information comparing portion (182) compares playlist information, and an information comparing portion (184) compares play item information. Finally, a title including playlist information and play item information last stored in the nonvolatile storage portion (160) before the power-on of the disc player device (100) is searched for, and normal playback of the title is started. Such a configuration allows for quick playback resuming of a BD-J title being played at the time of the power-off, with a Java application running.Type: GrantFiled: February 29, 2012Date of Patent: May 5, 2015Assignee: Panasonic Intellectual Property Management Co., Ltd.Inventors: Takashi Yoshimoto, Yoshinori Hiramatsu

Patent number: 8978393Abstract: An outdoor unit of air conditioner for ensuring strength against an impact applied to an electrical component box in a front-back, left-right, or top-bottom direction. The electrical component box has an upper partition plate, a front plate, and a box base plate coupled to one another and supported by an arm and a support post. The arm substantially perpendicularly supports the front plate in a front-back direction, and the upper partition plate. Thus, the electrical component box is strong enough to withstand an impact in the front-back and the left-right directions. Further, the support post substantially perpendicularly supports the arm and the box base plate in a top-bottom direction allowing the electrical component box to withstand an impact in the top-bottom direction. Also material of the electrical component box can be reduced.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2012Date of Patent: March 17, 2015Assignee: Fujitsu General LimitedInventors: Yasushi Hika, Yoshinori Hiramatsu, Mitsuo Ueda, Yasumasa Tsuji

Patent number: 8763416Abstract: An outdoor unit of an air conditioner for facilitating setting of an electrical component box into the outdoor unit. A blower chamber side of a box base plate is similar in shape to a lower partition plate provided with a receiving part formed by bending inward an upper end of the lower partition plate. When joining an electrical component box to the lower partition plate, the box base plate is set onto the receiving part along a flange, whereby positioning the electrical component box, which is fixed to the lower partition plate by fastening with a screw, welding, or other suitable method. The positioning can be achieved only by putting the box on the receiving part along the flange. Facilitated positioning and fixing leads to simplicity and enhanced workability.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2012Date of Patent: July 1, 2014Assignee: Fujitsu General LimitedInventors: Yasushi Hika, Yoshinori Hiramatsu, Mitsuo Ueda, Yasumasa Tsuji

Publication number: 20130108240Abstract: A reproduction control unit starts to monitor a reproduction state of a title being reproduced by a reproduction unit. If a specific navigation command added to the title being reproduced is executed, the reproduction state at a timing of the execution of this command is stored into a local storage. Moreover, the reproduction control unit determines whether or not the title being reproduced by the reproduction unit is an HDMV movie title, and in the case of the HDMV movie title, the reproduction control unit stores its reproduction state into the local storage. Resume reproduction depending on a reproduction target title is performed based on the reproduction state associated with the execution of the above specific navigation command and register information on the HDMV movie title.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 29, 2012Publication date: May 2, 2013Applicant: PANASONIC CORPORATIONInventors: Yoshinori Hiramatsu, Tatsuya Takeuchi, Koichi Tasaki
